A bit of Alf

The BEST uk sitcom ever....but like everything else it was marmite..people either loved it or hated it. In fact...I didn't much like it at first..so awkward to watch...then it just grew on me. It's brilliantly done.
Friends is my favourite though.

Yes :clap1:

Glad you Agree, Andy

Haha yes!

"Where my bed!?"

"I put it in storage... I guess you'll have to decided WHICH Lucille you want to spend your nights with..." :laugh::laugh:

Season 5 starts in a week or two, I made a thread in the TV section!

Friends didn't have Victor, so how can it be the best?

Joey vs Frank? It's not even a contest.

1. Absolutely Fabulous
2. Keeping Up Appearances
3. Friends
4. Birds Of A Feather
5. Bad Education

adore friends, have the box set so can watch over and over :cheer2:

Another Friends fan:worship:

You're ignoring the fact that only over 50's watch BBC2.

You're just ignoring.

Ugh i hate this type of comedy like hypermasculine grr bloke stuff garbage :bawling:

Dinnerladies slept on?

Well if you do, then my guess would be that comedy isn't your favourite genre on television. The reason it's not your favourite genre is because you dislike the good stuff.

Incorrect sis :nono: i love comedy

Dinnerladies, the royle family, gimme gimme gimme, will and grace etc slay me

Alf just has no taste, huh?

I know that you share my taste for One Foot in the Grave!

You know how to get round me. Cheeky.

Funny what he says about the BBC... a lot of people here used to treat BBC like it was so much more professional and much higher brow than American television... our culture sometimes even being regarded as the uglier cousin.

This show is like a mash-up of Cosby show + All In The Family... the latter is based off of it apparently (I didn't even know that...)


It ran for 9 seasons. It was on regular reruns on local when growing up... still is on cable.

^Yeah, it was based on Till Death us do Part. There's been many American sitcoms based on British ones.

I assume you've heard of Sanford and Son? That was based on my favourite, Steptoe and Son.

Same, I wasn't into it as much as other shows, but I watch it when it was on TV. There are other citcoms I like much more... like Home Improvement, Boy Meets World, Saved By The Bell :love: ...

Yes I remember that show :love: We watched a lot of the older citcoms and black & white movies.. my mom and I used to watch a lot of AMC classics. I used to watch by myself a lot of I Love Lucy on Nickelodeon on Saturday Nights...I think it was after "Snick", or whatever the Nickelodeon children's comedy show was called... it had Kenan & Kell on it and Amanda Bynes when she used to yell at the screen (which was funny)... Kenan is on SNL now and he's still hilarious.

I remember when they had a call-in vote. The kids could call in and vote for the president (Unofficially). I voted for Ross Perot because I wanted to support the underdog... my family laughed at me. :bawling:

For me, definitely.
